Jigging & Casting! (Bonito + False Albacore)

[@josephhorstmann4585]

Delighted that you can get out and entertaining those of us who are quarantined with your great videos. Thank you for sharing. Very much appreciated.

[@tedwoodside975]

There's nothing like hooking a large striper but a blitz of snapper blues always brings a smile as well!

[@jameslinton2470]

Flounder and redfish are by far my favorite targets. Makes it even more enjoyable that I can always rely on being able to watch you catch them when I get skunked.

[@peterm8381]

Stripers have always been my old standby, but in the past few years I've really developed a love for Tog fishing.

[@mdmedicgod]

Love targeting flounder with my kids.. Flounder fishing always takes me back to the days fishing with my grandfather.

[@czwest7845]

Nice video Elias, My favorite target fish is Stripers! Stay healthy you and your family.

[@robertdouglas5747]

I enjoy the challenge of catching sheepshead. They are tough to catch and they fight great. But I do love catching flounder as much as I do eating them!! Thanks for all the great videos you put out. They are educational as well as entertaining.

[@curtisg.8671]

Thanks for the Badfish promo!! I've been wanting to get this and now I will. Awesome video for us Northeast guys that had a bad fall for the Bonito, false albacore run from inshore.

[@rumboldj1]

Great Video as usual!! Love the fishing! Keep up the great work 👍

[@skipyost177]

My favorite saltwater fish was flounder till NC shut down the harvest. Love catching Albies during the season, but will be targeting sheepshead this spring.

[@richardkeith6822]

Flounder, love catching and eating them. Thoroughly enjoy watching your videos, I've learned a lot from them! God Bless and keep you!✌

[@jhuntnfish6872]

I am land locked but I still love my striper. Hydroelectric dam fishin, surf rods 100+yards out in current. Totally hooked on it. Great vid as always.Keep em comin man.

[@jonathanmess9958]

Up here in the great state of Maine: I love heading out to fill up on Mackerel for the charcoal grill and smoker. The last couple years we've had some Bonito mixed in every now and again. What a blast! Love the Vids. Thanks.

[@thomasjarosz7406]

Elias, stay safe together. Thanks for the video. God bless you both.

[@edwinlong6477]

Always nice to see what’s biting down south. Definitely going to check out that box subscription for the Chesapeake Bay Area. Thanks for taking us along.

[@edwinlong6477]

Oh and speckled trout are a great catch in the bay.

[@dylanpomykacz4103]

My favorite saltwater fish to target here in New Jersey is probably black seabass. Unlike many anglers, I don’t just drift bait; I like to jog for them. I just love seeing them show up on the sounder, they put up a nice fight, they are such a beautiful looking fish, and they taste delicious!

[@timgreer7440]

My favorite fish to target is Speckled Trout, but closely followed by flounder. I always check to see if you upload anything. I really enjoy your content especially the inshore stuff.

[@TheNorthForkCatch]

My favorite fish to target is fluke. When they're in season I like being able to go to mostly any beach,pier or inlet and having a good shot at getting them. And experimenting with different soft plastics is a plus.

[@tonysfishingadventures6725]

Striped bass, Sea bass, Fluke, and Porgies. Love your video man.

[@akuhio]

Just ordered a badfish box. $15 off is a pretty good deal! Excited to see what I get. I hope it helps you continue to make great vids. Especially since we fish the same areas. I’ve picked up a lot of tips from you and I owe you thanks for tons of hook ups 🤙 keep it up brother.

[@surfkingcolon5600]

Thanks for the chance, stay safe my favorite fish to target is false albacore and bonito

[@maxwaters3681]

Hey Elias......Another great video...My favorite fish to chase is red drum while kayaking with a couple of buddies in the Chesapeake...hope to see you on the water...

[@valeriomora9565]

My favorite fish to catch in salt water is "RED FISH" ...awesome videos brother. Always love watching your videos.

[@Tigerpuffer]

6:26 nice flock of Bonaparte’s gulls feeding over the tuna school

[@joseApinet81]

My favorite fish to catch is stripe bass at the cape cod canal, but this year is a game changer for me with my new old town predator pdl can’t wait! Stay safe and fish on!!

[@watnongmountainadventures430]

False Albacore are easily my favorite fish to target from the beach!

[@daven1416]

Chasing tailing redfish here in SE NC with a 7 wt fly rod in my kayak, unbelievably fun when you hit the flood tides just right. Also surprising number of flounder caught as bycatch when throwing a Clouser for the reds.

[@justindemers1894]

Last year was my first time targeting and catching albies and bones. Both were instantly my favorite to catch but I would pick Bonito because they make great sushi! Although false albacore makes great sushi too if done right. Tight Lines Eli!

[@rymon628]

It’s great that you’re still releasing content during this time. Any advice for this spring season from Brooklyn shoe fishing ?

[@rmbooker1]

Inshore favorite target would have to be stripers. Loved the video as always, hope you will be able to get back in the kayak soon.

[@donb1661]

Nothing wrong with honest endorsements. It's a win all around.

[@davidgreen8458]

I love catching Dhufish in Western Australia, those soft plastics should be awesome for them and Baldies. Love the vids, keep up the great work please. Thanks, Dave

[@strichards5337]

Favorite fish to target: striped bass. EVF, don’t sweat the incorporated ads. You don’t do enough of them to burden us and frankly I’ve been looking for a good deal on trying a monthly box. Your add got BadFish at least one new sub. Thanks for the contest giveaway. Stay well.

[@donjordan1008]

Great video, but at Woods Hole's stone Betty located behind the NMFS where they study tunas we routinely catch 5 or more species on a good late summer tide. Atlantic Bonito (bones), Spanish Mackerel (smackers), Little Funny or False Albacore or Ocean Bonito or Green Bonito (fat alberts), Blue Fish (boo-fish), Striped Bass(line siders) and even the occasional Black Sea Bass; all on the same lure, semi fast retrieve, and within the fairly shallow water column.

[@terp53]

My friends and I chase Albacore with fly rods around Moorhead city and Oakland. My favorite way to catch them. 👍🏼

[@davidtran5816]

Tautog is my favorite fish to target. Getting the hookset is exciting

[@canigetachannel]

Eli, my favorite saltwater fish to target is Pacific GT and Pacific Lingcod. Atlantic side, I enjoy Tarpon and Bluefin tunas. Thanks for the interesting footage and as always, great video !👍✌

[@davidvandiford9956]

Never been lucky enough to catch the Bonito but have got plenty of the Albies. Tight lines Brother and glad you are not in NY. Wife has family there and we hear it is bad.

[@paco1008]

Enjoyed your vid today. Looked way better than being confined. I'm a bit fan on the sheepshead fishing ...

[@jamesgbriley4471]

Favorite fish to catch would probably have to be, Bonita, albacore, yellow fin, blue fin, and dorado! But in a pinch any fish will do! Nice to see you hooked up on those speed demons!

[@willmacaluso5293]

Grouper, in the Gulf, Cobia at the Outer Banks and Bluefish in Virginia Beach are my favorite fish to both fish for and eat.

[@robertcronin6714]

I guess it would be wishful thinking to say winter flounder, those days are long gone. OK back to reality the fish I am most looking forward to getting a hook into is blackfish. The party boats have all been shut down so the early season was a bust but I am hoping to pick some from the bridges and pilings from the kayak soon.

[@matthewjacques9017]

My favorite fish to target is albies. That screaming drag never gets old.

[@jeffhackler2113]

I really love yo target stripers and flounder, thanks for the great videos

[@jasonhughes990]

Elias I love to catch sheepshead that is my favorite fish to catch at the Chesapeake Bay Bridge Tunnel you are a Master at catching those fish thanks for all the tips.

[@MrMquinn23]

Striped BAsss in the fall is my favorite!

[@heatherswanner6273]

My favorite fish to target is sheepshead because no other fish is harder to hook. They fight so well and are sizeable for inshore fish. Also, the weather during sheepshead season ain’t so bad!!!

[@syky1788]

Favorite target inshore species is stripe bass; nothing beats spring run throwing plastic.

[@rumboldj1]

Love the Albi's. My favorite fish to catch is Trout/Flounder

[@timadams3486]

Nice quick video like to see you out on boat. Up in Massachusetts i like haddock and cod party boat plus flounder

[@bigdawg-cl2db]

Thanks for the video !! Redfish for the fight, but flounder from the eating !!!

[@akuhio]

Gotta say my favorite is spanish mackerel. Wish they were here year round. But I'm a big fan of whatever bites. A day on the water beats a day working every time.

[@DancingKit86]

I'm usually doing inshore fishing, so my favorite has to be Reds. Love those type of fight.

[@FaithNFishing]

always a fan of the videos you post. Thanks for the entertainment and knowledge. Fave inshore fish for me is Sheepshead.

[@laundry08]

Flounder are such cool fish. They're aggressive, dynamically camouflaged, and bilaterally asymmetric, how awesome is that?!

[@fishingwithgriffin7178]

Definitely grouper. Getting a nice gag to smack a vertical jig in 200ft is hard to beat and the reward on the dinner table is also very nice

[@bentaylor4570]

I like flounder. They are in my opinion one of the tastiest fish. If not them then Black Sea bass. They are small but mild and tasty. Hope the wind dies down so we can go back out.

[@danielweise8516]

Fluke in my hobie is my favorite. Pros are delicious and lazy man fishing times (summer and daytime). Best fish is stripers though, beast fish at night are an adventure. Thanks for continuing the content. Feels like house arrest here in CT.

[@ricbaker4739]

Loving the open water vids👍👍👍👍👍

[@CDotFromJerz]

STRIPED BASS!!! got on a few cookie cutters yesterday in NJ! Hope you're safe brother! Thanks for the info on the Carolinas! #pinstripedbass

[@seancurley7954]

Favorite inshore fish is Tog, but I just love a tug on the line.

[@sweetlysprinkled645]

My favorite saltwater fish has always been red drum, they are just hard to beat.

[@Bloodseed22]

My favorite fish to target is in the Hudson river in mid April for mondo Striped bass !

[@gbouley1]

Wow! Spring Albies and Bonito. I'm a Northeast Inshore guy. Something I don't see. Thanks! Always love your Vids.

[@EliasVFishing]

Yes! It’s pretty cool. This region hits a cross of northern and southern fisheries. Unpredictable to a degree but lots to appreciate.

[@ChristianLDworske]

Favorite fish to target are reds. Big range in size and tactics to catch them on.

[@mccullochjoey]

Bull reds and cobia. Fish the OBX around Frisco. Keep it up! love that you moved to NC

[@Backtrack336]

Reds in the backwaters of OKI. Very beautiful fish and fun to catch!

[@reelgoodfishingnc3572]

Flounder for sure my favorite! Reds are a close 2nd

[@maineoutdoorshuntingfishin7396]

Awesome vid Ellies and my favorite salt water fish to catch is a striper

[@jcarry5214]

Looked like a good little time, thanks man.

[@tobiemitchell7349]

Favorite fish to target.... any fish biting. I just like being on the water

[@andrewc9188]

My favorite fish inshore are sea bass. They are absolutely beautiful and fun to catch

[@csabasiska5468]

My favorite fish to catch during summer is flounder.

[@gutter609]

It’s hard to salt water fish here in Kentucky. Lol. But when we do get to I like the Sea Trout. Nice video.

[@chrisnyzio1957]

Fluke is my favorite fish to target. Although striper fishing this spring has been pretty hot even though it’s still early. Shame now that they closed all parks and beaches here in Jersey. Hope this is all over soon.

[@fishingvin4112]

My favorite fish to target is Striped Bass, Long Island Sound , love your vids.

[@crc1238]

My favorite fish to target is Spanish Macs. It's nice to catch 3 or 4 at a time on a tree rig.

[@dough666]

My favorite fish to target are sea bass, mostly because I always atleast have 2 of my 5 kids with me on a boat lol. Thanks great content and great product just picked some up last week

[@iburry]

In all the fishing I did as a kid, in Florida, I don't think I ever caught an actual Atlantic bonito. It was always false albacore, which everyone called bonito. Five pound false albie makes great marlin/sailfish bait though

[@mleroy_fishing]

My favorite fish to target is a toss up between Black Sea bass and fluke..both taste absolutely delicious

[@belgrave1984]

Favourite fish to catch mackerel catch and cook great vid

[@ErwinEdventures]

Loved the video man!

[@stevenr1983]

Love fluke fishing.. thanks for the videos!

[@patrickspehnkouch2345]

Favorite fish to target: bluefish, especially the big ones. Crazy acrobatics, huge blowups, screaming runs, and the small to medium size ones are tasty smoked, fried, even made into poke. What's not to like?

[@tonygville2969]

The Hogfish is always a Gift. Usually I got them on a Hawaiian sling. God Bless 😎 BTW, that was when I lived in Old Miami.

[@hef-outdoors2116]

nice vid. favorite fish has got to still be stripers however I haven't caught an albie yet.

[@AquidneckRider]

I mainly target Striper here in RI. Of course there's always the trusty Bluefish when the Stripers aren't hitting.

[@brandonteague4425]

Spanish mackerel!!!!! Keep up the awesome tutorial vids

[@Domvav1215]

Summer flounder absolute favorite, but puffer fish in barnaget is a close second

[@loganjames8664]

the TOOL shirt is killer !!

[@Apstar622]

Love your fishing videos. And I enjoy targeting tog in CT

[@ericlo4519]

Redfish! Awesome content as always.

[@donthornthatfish2444]

I can’t say no to King Mack’s when they start coming through, makes me get all excited this time of year because I know the big Smokers are hungry.

[@jmnorris50]

My favorite fish to target is flounder, but since theyre closed for now, I'll go with reds. Hard to beat fighting a red on light tackle.

[@rolandfero9742]

Cool vid man...I saltwater fish mostly in OBX ( surf and pier) and florida keys (bridge and head boats). In OBX the bite seems to change monthly. From clear nose skate one month, blue crab the next, to speckled trout and whiting 2 months later...in the keys, its just a whole different world...I catch eels like you catch sharks...I can't stand them!!! So I guess I'm just an opportunistic fisherman...Tight lines 😎

[@jasonkoestel1969]

Love to target stripers in the fall and spring then it’s flounder in the summer

[@WhatsCrackin904]

I like to target Skipjack Tuna when I hit the Keys. Target is used loosely, they are often just bycatch.

[@bradys.7967]

Redfish, baby. Tailing slots on the flats or jigging slobs on a wreck, they're the meanest fish out there.

[@EliasVFishing]

100% agree

[@jimm5119]

My favorite is Redfish, but love ‘em all!

[@szymonsaniewski5140]

Definitely my favorite is chasing stripers on kayak in raritan bay!
